Doing im when supposed to be doing subq?????

[Razord]

So my doctor prescribed my testosterone cypionate starting increase to max subq weekly. She prescribed me originally 5/8 in needle but when I went to the pharmacist he redid my prescription and gave me 1inch and went over the medication as an intramuscular injection. I did a total of 3 shots as im thinking it was the right way. Well today I realized that I was supposed to be doing subq. Will this affect my transitioning in any kind of way?

T is marketed as only IM so that's why the pharmacist would say that. We in the trans community know it is widely accepted to take T via subq. Go with what your doctor said.

I do my shots subq and have had the same issue when new people are involved in my care.
